Description

For two centuries, scholars often dismissed the ephemeral writing of James Boswell as too topical or trivial for serious study. This volume, Boswell and the Press, challenges that long-held view. By examining his periodical writing, pamphlets, and broadsides, these collected essays provide a new perspective on his literary career. This collection demonstrates how studying Boswell's shorter works helps clarify his interests and capabilities as an author. It offers a way to refine our understanding of how the print environment of his time shaped his output. For students and researchers of literary history, this book provides a necessary look at the side of Boswell that traditional criticism has overlooked.
